Every child is different and it's best to work closely with the gastroenterologist and dietician. Children with MIRAGE seem unable to properly absorb nutrients, so they often require additional calories to maintain growth. Feeding tubes are common with MIRAGE patients. Some children are able to supplement their feeding tubes with oral nutrition. Chronic diarrhea is a major challenge, and some parents have reported a blended real-food diet has helped. There are many different types of specialty formula that your physician may be able to prescribe. The most important thing is to watch your child for signs of intolerance and not force more upon their digestive system than they can readily handle, because straining their system will lead to further complications and possibility of infection.
